'The love of natural things and of birds and bird-watching, fishing, art, drawing and print making, particularly wood engraving - all have proven to be essential to my well-being as has English literature and indeed the 'book' itself. I now hope and trust that each one of these wonderful ingredients are, in some small way at least, properly represented here in this volume.' (Preface).
